Found this really neat screwdriver set at Home Depot today. Has every single thing you'd need to take down a gun to the gearbox and beyond. Phillips, flat heads, hex keys, star/torx keys, everything. The only one thing it doesn't have is that tiny 050 Allen key that some guns have on the mag release.
$19.99 at Home Depot.

Good guy Xbox!

Changes to Xbox One

An internet connection will not be required to play offline Xbox One games – After a one-time system set-up with a new Xbox One, you can play any disc based game without ever connecting online again. There is no 24 hour connection requirement and you can take your Xbox One anywhere you want and play your games, just like on Xbox 360.

Trade-in, lend, resell, gift, and rent disc based games just like you do today – There will be no limitations to using and sharing games, it will work just as it does today on Xbox 360.

Good guy Xbox One?

So, Your best friend's brother comes in. You've never seen him before, all you know is he's like a younger version of your best friend, and he just moved here from Middleofnowheresville. He starts talking about how he likes to kick kittens, punt puppies, and is a peeping tom.

And he tells this to everyone he meets. Everyone. His freakish nature becomes his defining characteristic in less than a week.

Then, all of a sudden, after a simple week of bullying, he decides to stop punting puppies and kicking kittens. He's still a peeping tom, but he's not kicking kittens or punting puppies anymore, right? Right? So he's all good to go again, right?

Xbox One is still Xbox One. For them to suggest the changes they had in mind shows you just how out of touch they are with their user base. They honestly thought that their ideas would work, and it's extremely obvious that they aren't. We've made it abundantly clear that it won't, and thankfully, they are changing their ways. But they still have those plans, And they are still watching you.

I won't be getting one, but I wasn't getting one before they were officially announced, or any of this crap started. I'm not getting a PS4. I'm not getting a WiiU. I have a PC, and that's all I'll ever need.

i will say that the things microsoft wanted to do with xbox one are in line with the industry's direction as of late, like some games requiring connection, some never being available on disc, only purchaser can play etc.

i didnt like this then and i dont like it now, but i didnt see it turning around.

microsoft was just the first company to outright say "this is how it is"

a lot of people just saw a lot of that restriction for the first time with the xbox one. the backlash was actually less than i thought.

i will say the original announcement had me saving for a ps4, i hate pc gaming. the mods and user content are awesome, theres just a disconnect when using a keyboard that i dont like.

if they ditch that 2 foot long video nanny requirement i may be back on board.

i cant believe you even referenced the wiiu.

Made by Microsoft.

For those who didn't already see this, its pretty crazy how much PS4 just destroyed the xbone at E3. How can you come out and call your new product a flop?!

yes, creator definition of a product can forever effect image. EXAMPLE - the great wall of china's only goal was to prevent mongol invasion. it did not work. but "dismal expensive engineering flop of china" didnt have the same ring to it, and we only focus on the fact that its frakkin huge.

I actually heard people talking about this before it was announced (reddit.) People were speculating that it was all mictosoft's marketing plan: Introduce a crappy product, everyone complains, they fix it, everyone is happy, good guy Microsoft listens to their customers and fixes things they admit are poor.
